Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Echo Dot (2nd generation)'s ease of use, sound quality, and small size, frequently praising its affordability and Bluetooth connectivity. While some users found the setup a bit challenging and noted occasional issues with Alexa's responsiveness or volume, the positive feedback on its core features outweighs these concerns. Many appreciate its use as an alarm clock and its integration with smart home devices.

    My mother has this so I knew that I loved it before I bought it. Bought one for my brother and one for me. Alexa is great!

    Good, but not near as polished as Google Home

    I like it, but not a huge Amazon user and Google Home seems quite a bit more polished in its responses and accuracy of voice recognition, even though the Dot does seem to have a better microphone.

    Not a loud speaker like the full-sized Alexa, but is really good still carries all the same features it's nice to be able to just talk to it and tell it what you wanted to do I've bought six so far

    After listening to all the accolades, decided it was time to buy Alexa. Not to be disappointed. I haven't even discovered all the things to do with her; like setting up reminders and grocery lists. I even bought one for my 83 year old mother so she could play music and be reminded what day it was and what the weather was going to be like.

    It's fun to play with, but seems i can do most everything just as easily by just pulling out my phone. I think the Google Home Mini has better specs. Was worth it for $30, not for any more though.

    My family and I really enjoy our Echo, mainly to have fun asking Alexa to do different things. The only annoying thing is that if the music is up too loud she won't hear us asking her to change it.

    I’d questioned ever getting one and my 11 year old has requested one for quite some time, he lives the ai interaction and we will keep adding things he can control by voice. He has autism with speech complications so I love that it’s putting him in position to be more structured verbally and practice is fun.

    The world is heading for simple ways to do things at home and smart devices like the echo makes it come true. The Echo Dot is easy to set up and as the generations add better features and designs, the possibilities just keep getting better. Voice command is wonderful.

    I purchased the White Echo Dot because I upgraded to Dish Network to a Hopper 3. The Echot Dot can control the Dish Hopper 3 in a lot of ways with just a simple voice command. It is also a cool item because me and my boys will ask it random questions about math, what happened on this day in history, weather, flight time from here to Rome and any other random question. It not an earth shattering technology, but for the price and features I found it well worth the money.

    I love it...works w a lot of smart home items, and is great if you subscribe to Amazon prime music unlimited. Only drawback is a lot of commercials now reference"Alexa" and she listens to the tv.

    This is my introduction to the Amazon Echo. Works great, tied to timer control. Still getting use to interacting with questions and directions. So far, doing fine. One of us has a learning curve.
